A Big Move

I'm about to move to San Jose CA for 1-2 years and I'm super excited. To sum it all up I will be living with some wonderful people, studying the bible, working part time, and going to school full time at FIDM in the San Fransisco campus as a design major. I leave here early on August 6th. I am driving my car there for the 2 1/2 days it takes to get there which is 24-26 hrs a total of 1630 miles. I am really excited about the drive. I have never done anything like this before. Honestly I have driven to Kansas City by myself and that's about it. But I will be okay...maps, coffee, and prayers will get me there just fine. My house is being rented during the time I am gone to my #1 best friend and cousin, Tisha. She is amazing and I couldn't ask for someone better to rent my house that I trust 100%. All of my furniture and the rest of my crap is in storage. That's another thing...seriously I am only 23 and I have so much "stuff"...its ridiculous. You don't know how much stuff you have until you move. I moved in with my mom for the summer before I leave. I'm pretty much just taking my clothes and some books with me...whatever will fit in my car. I had to give away my kitty Mia and that's all I'm going to say about that because it makes me sad. My doggy Zoe is staying with my parents and my horse Meg will be ridden by my parents and nieces while I'm gone. Hopefully Zoe and Meg wont forget me.
I am staying in a house with 3 other people that all attend the same bible fellowship called Bayside Fellowship. I will be studying alot and growing my relationship with God by just surrounding my self in that kind of environment and soaking up the Word. I am also really excited about going back to school. FIDM has been my dream college since I was 13. It is the top design school in the nation for Fashion Design and other majors. My major will be Visual Communications. If you are interested in more info about my school go to www.fidm.com. I am not sure where I am going to work yet. It will be just part time wherever it will be. I may have an opportunity to still work for my current employer via email/internet which would be awesome if it works out. My real estate license will still remain active until I get back but while I am in CA I will be referring all of my clients to my Mom who has been a realtor for 16 years. My mail is all going to my Moms but if something is sent to my house it will end up getting to me because my cousin lives there. I am keeping the same Verizon cell phone # and I have unlimited calling and texting so feel free to message me! My housing program is from Aug 10th 08-June 1st 09 and my schooling is from Oct 08-Oct 09. Im not sure where I will be living after June 09 but it will all be worked out by then and I will live wherever God guides me to. I may come home for the summer but I am not sure yet. I am for sure about coming home for two weeks in December though. Part of my heart will be left in Kansas but the rest of it will go with me to explore new adventures. It will be a big step for me because I have never been away from my family before. It will be hard at first but I will be around some really wonderful people. I am so excited!!
